I can remember if i’ve asked already, but i’m planning on starting a new clangen comic while i work on my mini comics and was wondering if you had any suggestions on motivation ?

-Heeart

I made a longer post with advice (including the topic of motivation) here. But long story short:

Play ahead and take notes in various Clangen saves until you find one you like. Make sure you want to use it and that interesting things happen that you can look forward to, and foreshadow them in the comic.

Maybe don't let your Clan get too massive (which I know is hard lol) so it doesn't become exhausting to keep track of everything.

Use an art style that isn't super time consuming to draw so that you don't dread drawing pages.

Once you've been posting, if you lose motivation, reread either your own comic or other people's Clangen comics. This always make me want to draw pages.

Don't put huge amounts of pressure on yourself to get pages out or to keep going. If it stops being fun for you, there's no shame in taking a break or stopping altogether.

If any other comic artists have advice for Heeart, comment below!
